Walk A Mile

As a volunteer Student Curriculum Developer working with the managing director of Industrial Design Outreach, we co-created the Walk A Mile curriculum. I tested materials and lessons, which directly impacted the final curriculum.

I was inspired by illusion street art, the kind that makes a hole seem to appear in the ground when looked at from the right angle. The target users are street dancers of any style; the cascading shapes and loud colors empower a dancer's movements. From illusion art, I explored the perception of space. I glued and stitched the shoe out of faux leather onto a pre-made sole.

medium: polyurethane leather, ultrasuede, shoe sole, alcohol-based markers
